Rocco is a 7-month-old American Pitbull in Leesport, PA, who needs $2,000 for Broken Femur Repair.

Hello everyone and thank you. Rocco came into our lives a few months ago. We rescued Rocco from a family in a nearby city. He was being abused. I even we as far as giving the guy money for him so that he would not be abused anymore. He has quickly become a family member to us. My kids are so attached to him and we really want our boy healed ASAP. Thank you.

Rocco is missing out on his youth right note because of a broken femur. He wants to get back to his normal games with my kids of hide and seek, fetch, play fighting and wrestling. He really really really loves when it’s treat time because he is food driven and really loves finding his treats. But his all time favorite time is couch time.

Rocco suffered from anxiety, like we do. Since his arrival in our family he has helped to reduce our anxiety levels in our home and our persons. He is just a silly dog. He runs uncontrollably as if he were just born. He loves to run and sometimes just loses himself and runs into things like the trash can. But his smile makes us all laugh

Rocco was struck by a car on Thursday. He requires surgery to fix hood leg. He has a broken femur and the vet said that it would not heal naturally. The part of the femur that is broken is shattered in pieces. His treatments are being given at Eastern Pennsylvania Veterinary Medical Center. The total cost is about $4000.00.

This is an unexpected event. Rocco got loose from the home while we were sleeping. We just don’t have the funds to care for him because I lost my job and just don’t have the funds right now.
